Controlled numbness (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

analgesia

'controlled numbness' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for analgesia that I've seen before include "Absence of pain" , "Painlessness" , "Loss of pain" , "The relief of pain by drugs" , "painless" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun and the L.A. Times Daily.
